Deformation experiments were carried out in a deformation-DIA high-pressure apparatus (D-
DIA) on oriented San Carlos olivine single crystals, at pressure (P) ranging from 3.5 to 8.5 …

Seismic anisotropy is a key observational tool for mapping flow in Earth's upper mantle.
However, interpreting patterns of anisotropy relies on a firm understanding of the …

Seismic anisotropy records both the past and present deformation inside the solid Earth. In
the mantle, seismic anisotropy is mainly attributed to the lattice preferred orientation (LPO) of …

Shear wave splitting observations are often used to constrain upper-mantle anisotropy.
However, their interpretation, which is still controversial, always implicitly relies on geometric …

The effect of finite strain geometry on crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO) is poorly
constrained in the upper mantle. Specifically, the relationship between shape preferred …

The effect of a lattice preferred orientation on the flow strength of quartz aggregates
dynamically recrystallized from single crystals of synthetic quartz was investigated using …

There is increasing evidence for mid mantle seismic anisotropy around subduction zones
whose interpretation remains elusive. In this study I estimate the strain-induced mid mantle …

The portion of Earth's mantle lying below the hemispherical region occupied by the Pacific
Ocean basin is characterized by a unique style of convection. The unique dynamics below …

We use teleseismic P and S delay times and shear wave splitting measurements to
constrain isotropic and anisotropic heterogeneity in the mantle beneath the southern East …

Surface waves extracted from ambient noise cross-correlations can be used to study depth
variations of azimuthal anisotropy in the crust and upper mantle, complementing XKS …
